AV99's custom 600g Reef Savvy on site build-Lots of pictures

Is that a big reefdynamics calcium reactor? I didn't know you could still find them. The design is great with recirculation, I have a smaller model and it works well.

Yes, it was custom built by Reef Dynamics for my build. It's huge too. Would make a nice goldfish display tank too lol.

I just have missed your frags at the swap. You had a few left when I got there are around 1245 or so.
As always was a good time.

Tim, I wouldn't even humor trolls that don't understand the importance of having redundancy in such a large investment. It's the difference between losing your entire system, or nothing at all. I'm actually looking at streaming my system to phone to ensure I'm always aware of the status of it.
 
Up next is the lighting I will use on my 600g Reef Savvy dream tank. I have been using metal halide lights for well over a decade so it is no surprise that am I sticking with what I know best and what makes my SPS happy....but with a twist. I will also be using LED strip lighting as supplements, but the primary source of lighting will consist of 6 (six) 400 watt metal halide lights.

Reef Brite HyBrid Metal Halide 400W Pendants with XHO LED strips X 3 . :thumbsup: These light fixtures are sweet and compliment my Reef Savvy tank very well.

Very well said, Robby. I may have to copy your smartphone streaming updates for my system as well.

I'd have to agree. I don't understand why anyone would derail such a great thread by being so negative.

That's a crap ton of replacement bulbs! Ok maybe it's just one replacement swap for your whole setup but still :D

I was looking into metal halide ballasts myself and figured they'd be a lot cheaper or something due to the big push towards LEDs... nope... damn pot growers!!
 
Just wondering why you went with mogul bulbs versus double-ended? Aren't the latter more capable? Again, just a curiosity, not a critique.
